I hate speaking negatively about this organization, but, despite the retraction that Barker posted a while back to clear up his previous accusations, both Webb and Barker were quite blunt when I spoke to them following their releases. They painted a picture of an organization that forced them out because it simply didn’t think they were worth it’s time to rehab. In Webb’s case, he pitched an entire season with a partially torn ACL and was then released because, understandably, his results weren’t up to par. I do understand that you have to take player’s words with a grain of salt following a release, but their stories were just too consistent to dismiss in my opinion. Also, I honestly can’t say I know of a player that would rather go through the rehab process without assistance from an organization but I may be wrong.
